"You could have called ," Gu Nuan said, sowhat reproachfully accusing him of being careless.
Little did she know, he must have thought through this matter long ago, and having witnessed such an event with his own eyes, the little one pouted his lips and asserted righteously, "It’s a good thing I ca, or else, with her grabbing you like that, wouldn’t you be unable to clear your na even if you jumped into the Yellow River?"
"Is it really that exaggerated?" Gu Nuan disagreed. Without him stepping in, Qin Sinan, that grasshopper, wouldn’t have been able to leap around for much longer.
He reached out a hand and pulled hers, "Anyway, it’s only a matter of ti before everyone knows you married . Do you expect our child to hide and sneak around, unable to call us mom and dad after he’s born?"
Even Little Pudding nodded in agreent, saying, "That’s right!"
Gu Nuan was montarily at a loss for words.
Rarely did the little one at ho seriously consider taking on the role of the man of the house. She, Gu Jinrong, might as well go along with the man’s wishes and pretend to be the delicate and dainty bird, what was wrong with that?
After greeting Li Sitong, Gu Nuan left first.
What was left behind was, of course, a crowd of surprised onlookers watching a deaf girl leaving with a tall, handso long-legged male god and a little male god, feeling as if they were dreaming.
Gu Nuan temporarily couldn’t concern herself with the thoughts of the onlookers because eting the elderly was undoubtedly more pressing at the mont.
Speaking of eting Grandma Xiao, Little Pudding was just as anxious.
To Little Pudding, Grandma Xiao, this great-grandmother, was sowhat unfamiliar.
Why do I say so? Little Pudding’s intuition told him the old lady was not close to him.
Grandma Xiao made it very clear, this child ultimately bore the Zhao surna, not the Xiao, and only a grandson’s child could fulfill the dream of four generations under one roof.
Naturally, she treated her descendants differently, those from within and those from without.
The car arrived at the Xiao Family ho. It was only then that Gu Nuan realized that after Xiao Jianming’s family had moved out of the Ruan Family villa, the new residence they found seed to be no worse. After all, as the richest man, what kind of house could he not have?
Even if his family’s foundation was swept clean, there was no telling if he could continue to live in a nice house.
The wealthy are always very clever in arranging their finances, adept at finding legal loopholes.
When the butler heard noises, he ca to open the door for them, and seeing Gu Nuan, he was all smiles, exclaiming, "Young Madam—"
Gu Nuan nodded slightly in response.
The butler then said to Xiao Yebai, "The elder is sitting in the living room, and the young misses are all there."
The three Xiao sisters, Xiao Shulan, Xiao Shuju, and Xiao Shuzhu, were especially not daring to leave ho today, staying behind to welco their brother and sister-in-law.
As for Xiao Jianming, he was not at ho.
Gu Nuan could vaguely sense that this was probably Grandma Xiao’s stubborn doing.
They walked in. Sure enough, the elder was sitting upright on the living room sofa, dressed appropriately and nobly, with a dignified and elegant deanor. Her scrutinizing gaze seed to carelessly sweep over the faces of the young people as they entered.
Little Pudding went over first, standing in front of the elder, and called out, "Great-grandma."
Grandma Xiao’s eyelids lifted, her gaze slowly moved across Little Pudding’s face. Clearly, she didn’t care much, and after nodding her head, she said casually, "So, this child is with you two now?"
"Yes, my brother-in-law was too busy to care for him, so he was left with Nuannuan and ," Xiao Yebai said.
"Oh?" It seed Grandma Xiao grasped another unusual aning from his words, smiling subtly, "I didn’t expect your brother-in-law to be so thoughtful."
Xiao Yebai froze for a mont, feeling as if the elder’s words had a hidden implication, which in turn triggered his previous faint sense of unease that he might have been duped.
